Research Interests

 

Stratosphere-Troposphere Interactions in the Earth System

Projects

COMBINE: Comprehensive Modelling of the Earth System for Better Climate Prediction and Projection. COMBINE is a collaborative and large-scale integrating project of the European Commission's 7th Framework Programme.

SPARC DynVar: Modelling the Dynamics and Variability of the Stratosphere-Troposphere System. The DynVar Activity is part of the Stratospheric Process and their Role in Climate Project (SPARC). SPARC is a core project of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP).
